CAREER ADVANCEMENT EDITION
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, demand for jobs has skyrocketed while job losses are mounting. In this competitive job market, job seekers have their work cut out for them-especially women, who lost the most jobs in December 2020 according to the aforementioned analysis by the National Women's Law Center (NWLC). The challenges faced by BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and disabled candidates are even greater.
Pew reports that Black workers constitute just 5% of engineering and architecture jobs in the United States, and women comprise only 1% of engineering and computer science graduates. Meanwhile, STEM professionals experience a larger gender pay gap than other types of professions - and Pew notes that this gap is still growing today.
Coming from an underrepresented community, Anthony Mays knows what it’s like to compete for a position in Silicon Valley.

Through it all, Anthony went to a great university studying computer science and eventually worked at Google for 8 years.
How did Anthony go from Compton to Google?
Join us as Anthony shares his life story, his unlikely path to becoming the 1% at Google, how he battled imposter syndrome growing up, and how he overcame high expectations in the tech space.
